Product Description

The only thing better than having a good repeating shotgun or intermediate-caliber semiautomatic carbine or rifle in a gunfight is the skill to deploy it quickly and effectively. In this book, firearms instructor Steve Moses tells you how to do just that. A commissioned peace officer and experienced competitive shooter with a Master Class International Defensive Pistol Association rating, Moses has an in-depth and esoteric understanding of the art of shooting defensive long guns. In this groundbreaking book, he breaks down the mechanics of speed shooting these weapons, from stance and grip to sighting, trigger control and more, presenting them in a concise and easily understood manner. Whether you wish to further your defensive, competitive or recreational shooting skills, you will find this book a welcome resource for learning to shoot carbines and shotguns with the speed and accuracy that are so critical at short distances - the range at which most lethal engagements take place.

5.0 out of 5 stars Moses Finally Comes Through!, May 21, 2002

By	Brent Smith (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been waiting for this book to go into print for over a year now. It's finally out and well worth the wait! Steve covers everything you need to know about how put rounds on target quickly and effectively in a combat situation.

Steve's easy going style makes the demonstrated techniques simple to master in a short amount of time. I've seen Steve in action, the techniques and tactics he shares in his book are proven and effective.

Steve's book makes a great companion for any of the Progressive Training Group courses, as many of the tactics covered in Carbine and Shotgun Speed Shooting apply to other courses taught at PTG.

A must for anyone's tactical shooting library.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ok book, not that much information., February 18, 2007

By	Tom Xavier (Florida) - See all my reviews

Was hoping for some greater information on how to "Hit Hard and Fast in Combat". He presented extremely basic approaches to shooting. Can sum up the book with 1) Stance, 2) Aim, and 3) Shoot all threats. That's it. No in depth on scenarios etc. If you are looking for a quick summary of the basics, this book is for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not for the weak minded., May 28, 2008

By	G. Smith "RamCon1" (Honolulu, HI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is entry-level for the shooter that wants to go beyond the entertainment quality of shooting. It was not written in a way to excite the reader into satisfying his/her need to expend emotional energy related to firearms. It is the beginning of a mind set that is needed to hone shooting skills that go beyond the average, weekend shooter. It serves its purpose and has no bling for the non-professional, uninitiated enthusiast.
